Thankful

(album: Thankful - 2008)

I know I don't tell You near enough
My mind's always cluttered with other stuff
I race and I rush, I'm always tired and tangled

But I'm down here on the ground
Taking a good hard look around
I wanna tell You now that I'm so thankful

For every new day that I'm still breathing
This blue sky sunshine feeling I'm feeling
For every moment I have, I'm so thankful

For the beautiful colorful world that surrounds me
The love in the eyes of the people around me
I want You to know I am so thankful

I think about that fiery crash
That night in the rain, everything went black
I walked out without a scratch in the arms of an angel

But when I look out to the west
On a beautiful day at that red sunset
I know I've been so blessed and I'm so thankful

For every new day that I'm still breathing
This blue sky sunshine feeling I'm feeling
For every moment I have, I'm so thankful

For the beautiful colorful world that surrounds me
The love in the eyes of the people around me
I want You to know, God, that I am so thankful

I could count my blessings all day long
'Cause once I start
The list goes on and on and on and on

The smile on my face, the hand I'm holding
For where I've been and where I'm going
For every moment I have, I'm so thankful

For the beautiful colorful world that surrounds me
The love in the eyes of the people around me
I want You to know, God, that I am so thankful

I am so thankful
For every new day that I'm still breathing
This blue sky sunshine feeling I'm feeling
God, that I am so thankful
